Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

On December 8, 2016, the Reporting Person was granted 200,000 shares of restricted stock in consideration of his entering into the Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement between the Issuer and the Reporting Person, dated November 18, 2016 (the “Employment Agreement”). On January 1, 2017, the Reporting Person was granted an additional 350,000 shares of restricted stock pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement, upon the achievement of specified performance goals previously established by the Compensation Committee of the Issuer’s Board of Directors. Each grant of restricted stock was made under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Company’s 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan, and vests in full upon the first anniversary of its respective grant date.

 

In addition, on January 14, 2017, the Issuer and the Reporting Person amended the previously reported convertible secured promissory note dated December 7, 2015 (“First Convertible Note”), issued by the Issuer to the Reporting Person, as the “Holder”, in the original principal amount of $6,000,000. The amendment increased the interest rate on the First Convertible Note from 8% to 10% per annum and extended the maturity date thereof from January 15, 2017 to November 8, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). The principal amount of the First Convertible Note, as well as any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a per share exercise price of $2.30.

Purpose of Transaction.

 

On November 18, 2016, the Issuer entered into the Employment Agreement, pursuant to which the Reporting Person agreed to continue to serve as the Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Issuer and also to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, the Reporting Person was granted additional shares of restricted stock on December 8, 2016 in consideration of his entering into the Employment Agreement, and on January 1, 2017 upon the achievement of specified performance goals previously established by the Compensation Committee of Issuer’s Board of Directors. On January 14, 2017, the Issuer and the Reporting Person amended the First Convertible Note to increase the interest rate and extend the maturity date thereof to allow the Issuer to meet its liabilities and continue as a going concern. The Reporting Person holds all shares reported as beneficially owned for investment purposes.

 

 

The Reporting Person is President, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Issuer.  In these capacities the Reporting Person takes, and will continue to take, an active role in the Issuer’s management and strategic direction.  In addition, in connection with his employment with the Issuer, the Reporting Person may be entitled to cash and other non-equity compensation in connection with a sale of the Issuer or other transaction of the nature described below.

 

The Reporting Person currently intends to purchase up to 155,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock in a privately negotiated transaction, at a purchase price of approximately $1.60 per share. However, there can be no assurances that this proposed transaction will close, or as to the terms and conditions or the timing of such proposed transaction.

 

Other than as described above, the Reporting Person does not have any current plans or proposals, but may in the future propose one or more actions, which would result in any of the following:

 

(a)

the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;

(f)

any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure;

 

(g)

one or more changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions to the extent they may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;

 

(h)

causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

 

(i)

a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or

 

(j)

any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

 

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a)

The Reporting Person beneficially owns 10,842,943 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 46.8% of the Common Stock. The percentage of shares of Common Stock reported as being beneficially owned by the Reporting Person, assuming the notes described below are converted immediately and all options described below are exercised immediately, is based upon 14,411,609 shares outstanding as of March 1, 2017, as set forth in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2017.

 

Pursuant to the First Convertible Note, the Reporting Person acquired a convertible note in the original principal amount of $6,000,000, initially convertible into approximately 2,608,696 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at a price per share equal to $2.30. On January 14, 2017, the Issuer and the Reporting Person amended the First Convertible Note to increase the interest rate from 8% to 10% per annum and extend the maturity date thereof from January 15, 2017 to the Maturity Date. Any accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount will also be convertible into shares of Common Stock at a per share exercise price of $2.30. As of April 24, 2017, $37,922.38 of interest, convertible into approximately 16,487 shares, on the First Convertible Note was accrued but unpaid. Unless converted, all outstanding principal and any accrued but unpaid interest under the First Convertible Note (whether or not that interest has been capitalized) (the “First Conversion Amount”) shall be due and payable upon the Maturity Date.

 

Pursuant to a convertible secured promissory note dated November 8, 2016 (the “Second Convertible Note”), issued by the Issuer to the Reporting Person, as the “Holder”, the Reporting Person acquired a convertible note in the original principal amount of $11,000,000, initially convertible in whole or in part into approximately 6,010,929 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at a price per share equal to $1.83. Pursuant to the terms of the Second Convertible Note, the Issuer promised to pay the Reporting Person the principal amount together with interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate of 10% per annum. Any accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount will also be convertible into shares of Common Stock at a per share exercise price of $1.83. As of April 24, 2017, $72,557.11 of interest, convertible into approximately 39,648 shares, on the Second Convertible Note was accrued but unpaid. Unless converted, all outstanding principal and any accrued but unpaid interest under the Second Convertible Note (the “Second Conversion Amount”) shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

 

The Reporting Person, as the Holder, may at any time, in his sole discretion, upon written notice to the Issuer, elect to convert all or a portion of the First Conversion Amount and/or the Second Conversion Amount, respectively, into shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at the respective exercise prices of the First Convertible Note and Second Convertible Note.

 

As of April 24, 2017, the Reporting Person also beneficially owns 1,499,408 shares held by Consac LLC; 31,924 fully vested shares of restricted stock; 550,000 unvested shares of restricted stock; 68,681 shares subject to vested stock options with an exercise price per share of $1.89; and 17,170 shares subject to stock options with an exercise price per share of $1.89 that will vest within 60 days of this Amendment No. 2. The Reporting Person is the CEO of Consac and may be deemed to be the indirect beneficial owner (as that term is defined under Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act) of the Common Stock that Consac beneficially owns. The Reporting Person has the power to direct the voting and disposition of the Issuer’s Common Stock that Consac beneficially owns.
